i LOVE mixed drinks! i can't stand beer and i like to have a drink now and again. i pick out water flavorers, like dasani or mio fit or even crystal lite, which has zero or low cals and mix it normally with water. then i toss in a shot of light rum or vodka with ice to the top! it's fruity with the kick of liquor. each…

I'm gonna go with cutting the sodium, drinking lots of water, and either getting some shapewear or getting a new dress. it takes some people YEARS to get rid of the tummy!

yeahhh. i NEVER log my water. i drink 16-32 oz with every meal, plus 32-40 oz for every work out. that's just too much effort.

I started at 178, so not much lighter than you're at, and MFP never let me eat 1800 cals! when i started, it let me eat 1400 when i wanted to lose 1.5 lbs a week. if you're jogging 4x/week AND working out 4x/wk? and GAINING weight? you're definitely cheating yourself out of results. anything that goes in your mouth should…

i just had this happen. i was having a convo about having a whole wheat english muffin with honey-nut cream cheese for bfast and how delicious it was. some lady nearby who must have been as wide as she was tall, told me how unhealthy cream cheese is! seriously? some people just love to hear themselves speak.

i'm the same height and weight as you currently! i'm looking to lose another 25 pounds, so I started c25k 3 weeks ago to change up my cardio. i was on week 2, day 2. but i went on vacation and fell off the wagon! so i started again today at week 1, day 2. it's not easy to get the motivation to run, but it sure feels damn…

I was on week2/day2 when life happened and i fell off the wagon. that was only a week ago, but it seems so far away! tomorrow begins again with week1/day1. I'm not down on myself and beating myself up about it. I'm just proof that life happens! the only difference is that after a week of blissful non-exercise, i'm back on…

my two cents. 1. if you eat here twice a week, every week, i'd think you'd be able to ballpark your food. guesstimate! it's always better to round up than round down. if they tell you 2 oz, but you KNOW it looks like 5oz, are you really going to put 2 oz? 2. it's rude to be on your phone when you're out to a meal with…

you could sit there and get down on yourself, or you could do what i do. when i go out and SERIOUSLY enjoy myself (read: multiple margaritas, deep fried everything + dessert), i know i need to pay back my night of deliciousness by going to the gym or doing one extra day of light exercise. i never go ALL-OUT trying to…

I work 11p-730a. i start counting calories for my day after midnight. so my "breakfast" is what i eat at work, i usually aim for something around 300 cals. After work, i do one of two things: 8am gym for 1-1.5 hrs, home to shower, eat "lunch": something with protein/carbs ~400 cals, digest. sleep til noon-6. dinner with…
